Raven symbolizes changes in consciousness and is the symbol of a shape shifter. Ravens are prophets, spell-casters, and messengers. Raven offers knowledge of the world to the people for safe keeping. Over the course of generations, this knowledge is passed on, and the spirit of transformation begins to unfold.
When change needs to occur, the Raven flies quickly. She also brings new things, new places, new ideas, and rebirth. Raven helps the worthy, but loves to trick the unsuspecting; and is as full of mischief as she is wonderful. Raven symbolizes the home of our ancestors, our personal stories and imprinted memories. Raven is distinctly earthy, and feminine.
At Raven’s beckoning Baba comes to me with soup, a special elixir for the soul, strong brew that she thinks will warm the now aching heart where Dougie was comforted as he died.

A bit of magic in the soup, perhaps?
What a beautiful drawing, Heather. No doubt this soup found itself ingested to all the right places. How lovely and comforting at this upset time.
Such a wonderful image. I am so delighted to see you working again.

Baba Yaga is [part of the Archetypical Feminine and as such, she can nurture as well as any woman. I am so glad she has chosen to nurture you , when we cannot be there to do it.
